Following the announcement that their 2025 album <strong><em>International </em></strong>would be their final studio release, the iconic trio will take their celebrated catalogue on a farewell tour across the region this November and December.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Released in September 2025, <strong><em>International </em></strong>was met with rapturous acclaim, returning Saint Etienne to the<strong> UK Top 10 </strong>and reaffirming their status as one of Britain’s most treasured musical institutions. Now, fans across Australia and New Zealand will have the rare chance to experience the band’s shimmering, genre‑blurring sound live, one final time.</p><p style="text-align: center;">With a career spanning more than three decades, Saint Etienne’s songbook is rich with classics including <strong>‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’</strong>, <strong>‘Spring’</strong>, <strong>‘Nothing Can Stop Us’</strong>, <strong>‘You’re In A Bad Way’, ‘He’s On The Phone’</strong> and <strong>‘Wood Cabin’</strong> tracks that helped define an era of British pop and continue to resonate with audiences worldwide.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Formed in 1990 by Croydon natives <strong>Bob Stanley</strong> and <strong>Pete Wiggs</strong>, Saint Etienne struck gold from the outset with their debut single, a transformative cover of <strong>Neil Young’s ‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’</strong>, which quickly became a club anthem. The arrival of vocalist <strong>Sarah Cracknell</strong> in 1991 completed the definitive lineup, her debut on <strong>‘Nothing Can Stop Us’ </strong>and the Mercury Prize‑nominated album <strong><em>Foxbase Alpha</em></strong> cementing the group’s place in UK pop history.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Their follow‑up album <strong><em>So Tough</em></strong> soared into the UK Top 10, leading to a landmark moment in 1994 when Saint Etienne became <strong>t</strong>he first band ever broadcast live from <strong>Glastonbury Festival.</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;">Now, after decades of innovation, reinvention and irresistible pop craftsmanship, Saint Etienne prepare to say goodbye to Australian and New Zealand audiences.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>A final bow from one of Britain’s most cherished groups which is not to be missed.</strong></p><p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Tickets:</strong><br>Presale: Wednesday 3rd June at 9:00am local time<br> General Public On Sale: Friday 5th June at 9:00am local time<br>Sign Up For Pre-sale: <a href="https://www.destroyalllines.com/tours/saintetienne" title="https://www.destroyalllines.com/tours/saintetienne"><strong>destroyalllines.com/tours/saint-etienne</strong></a></p><hr><p style="text-align: center;"><em>We honour and acknowledge the Whadjuk Nyoongar people as Traditional Owners of the land on which we work and live.
